R.L.'s Dream

Aging bluesman Soupspoon Wise is alone and dying. He's played his music in a thousand bars and juke joints, but nothing, nothing could ever beat playing with Robert ?RL? Johnson back in the Mississippi Delta. Soupspoon is haunted by that brief encounter with the great musician, the genius who sold his soul to the Devil. Mosley's thrillers have been hailed as novels of depth and complexity that throw open the moral, physical and social landscape of personal and collective pain and redemption that confirms his status as one of America's finest writers.
